Liverpool fans would be forgiven for feeling rather down after our crushing loss to Real Madrid, but Virgil van Dijk remained resolute after the game, delivering an appeal to his teammates and our fans.
Speaking to Peter Schmeichel, our No.4 said: “The harsh reality is that we are 5-2 down and have an almost impossible task to turn Madrid around. But football is full of miracles and hopefully we can do a miracle”.

You have to admire the confidence and it’s important to remember that we’ve come back from a three-goal deficit against Spanish opponents in the Champions League before.
We’re not out yet, but the rojillos would have to make a monumental effort to achieve the impossible at the Bernabéu, something our central midfielder hopes we can do.
